Title: On-chip resonance detection and transfer function mapping of resistive-inductive-capacitive sensors
Inventor: TEJASVI DAS
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 2020-01-31
Abstract: The resonant frequency and/or transfer function of a resistive-inductive-capacitive sensor is measured during a calibration phase by measuring phase and amplitude of the sensor when driven with a driving signal at a driving frequency. The resonant frequency or transfer function may indicate the health of the sensor and an operating parameter of the sensor, such as driving or resonant frequency, may be modified based on the result, e.g. to reduce noise near resonances of the sensor. Further parameters such as the quality factor, phase, impedance or amplitude versus frequency profile, primary and secondary resonances or maximum amplitude may also be measured. The calibration may be performed periodically as a built-in test or when parameters of the sensor are out of bounds. An error may be indicated if the phase or amplitude measured are out of bounds. The sensor may measure the displacement of a mechanical member used as a replacement for a mechanical switch in a mobile device.

Title: Jet trenching system
Inventor: MICHAEL W N WILSON
IPC: E02F5/10
Filed: 2016-12-19
Abstract: The apparatus fluidises and maintains the sediment mix in an undersea trench being dug by a jet trencher below critical density allowing descent of a pipe/cable toward the bottom of the trench. The trencher 20, has a joint 37 at the low end 39 of each jetting sword 30 and a jetting conduit 50 extending aft of joint 37. The jetting conduit 50 rides along the trench floor L and water at high pressure is delivered by each sword 30 through its low joint 37 into an inlet end 75 of its jetting conduit 50. In Figure 4, each jetting conduit 50 has nozzles 51 along its length jetting high volumes of water at high pressure into the mix 23. Thus, the super-critical density 25 of the mix 23 is maintained for a considerably distance aft of the jetting 20 swords 30. The extended distance 53 gives the descending pipe greater time in super-critical density mix 25 to reach the trench base.

Title: High level syntax for video coding and decoding
Inventor: GUILLAUME LAROCHE
IPC: H04N19/70
Filed: 2020-03-20
Abstract: A method of decoding video data from a bitstream comprising video data corresponding to one or more slices; each slice may include one or more tiles. The bitstream comprises a picture header comprising syntax elements to be used when decoding one or more slices, and a slice header comprising syntax elements to be used when decoding a slice. Decoding a slice comprises parsing the syntax elements: where a slice includes multiple tiles, parsing of a syntax element indicating an address of a slice is omitted if a syntax element is parsed indicating that a picture header is signalled in the slice header. Alternatively, parsing of a syntax element indicating a number of tiles in a slice may be similarly omitted, or parsing of a syntax indicating a slice address may be omitted if a number of tiles in the slice is equal to a number of tiles in the picture. As an alternative, where a syntax element indicates that a raster-scan decoding mode is enabled for a slice, decoding at least one of a slice address and a number of tiles in the slice from the one or more syntax elements, wherein this does not depend on the number of tiles in the picture

Title: Planning with dynamic state a trajectory of an autonomous vehicle
Inventor: Scott Drew Pendleton
IPC: B60W60/00
Filed: 2021-11-22
Abstract: Method of defining a trajectory for an autonomous vehicle (AV) 100 navigating around obstacles along a route 1402, by detecting objects proximate the route; identifying static constrains including non-temporal, time-independent risks, e.g. road work 1406, speed limit, or other stationary objects; estimating a preliminary trajectory; identifying dynamic constrains including temporal, time-dependent risks, e.g. traffic lights at a junction 1404, pedestrians 1504, surrounding vehicles, and adjusting and refining the trajectory to avoid both static and dynamic risk constrains. Predicted behaviour of objects and confidence in the prediction may influence the size of temporal zone 1506. The trajectory may be adjusted if the temporal zone is a threshold distance away. A risk may be prioritised over a second risk. Static constrains may be grouped into soft and hard constrains, and a dynamic constraint may allow a soft constrain to be violated to avoid temporal risks. Duration of amber traffic light, maximum acceleration and deceleration rate, and trailing vehicles may be taken into account when determining constrains.
